THE STATE FAIR.
The Prospects are that it Will
ba a Grand Success.
Wednesday Hon. J. Sterling Mor
ton , of Nebraska City , President of
the State Agricultural Society ;
Major D. H. Wheeler , of Platts-
mouth , Secretary , and Jas. Moore ,
of Nebraska City , Treasurer , were
in the city for uie purpose of ascer
taining to their own satisfaction
how matters are progressing in re-
scard to the State Fair.
In company with Martin Dun
ham they visited the grounds , and
examined the buildings , and ex
pressed themselves very well satis
fied with the arrangements thus far
made. Mr. Morton said that our
grounds and buildings will make
the best accommodations fora State
fair that Nebraska has everhad.and
all agreed that the prospects are tliat
the coming fan- will be the greatest
success of the kind that has ever
taken place in the West.
The main building is in the shape
of a cross , and is a very large struc
ture , and with the paint that is be
ing applied , will present a very
handsome oppearance.
The contract for furnishing hay
and oats for the live stock was let
yesterday morning.
Over three hundred feet of front
age for refreshment stands have been
let Many applications have been
made for room for exhibition pur
poses , but as yet no action has been
taken upon them.
The display in every department
will be very extensiye , judging from
the number of letters received from
every part of Nebraska and adjoin
ing States , especially Iowa.
The State Fair will draw to this
city a very large attendance of
strangers , as the attractions will be
numerous. The races will form an
interesting feature , as some very
fast horses will put in an appear
ance. During Fair week theatrical
entertainments will be given at the
Academy of Music by a first class
troupe ; the Odd Fellows will give a
four nights' social entertainment in
thejr new building : and the firemen
will have their annual parade ; so
that our own citizens and our visit
ors will have a grand time ,

Correspondence of the BEE.
LINCOLN , August 20.
EDITOR BEE :
Yesterday I walked the streets all
day ; and , strange as it may seem ,
enjoyed it ; Generally , walking the
streets is a bore , and besides , one
cannot help but think that other
people carry the notion that he is
trying to make himself conspicu
ous , lesterday , however , no such
thought as that troubled us , and
every person that we met seemed
to take an unusual interest in our
welfare , for as best ve can remem
ber , every person was a man , and
he was a candidate for the Legisla
ture. We know many great
men , and meet them every
day , who do not speak to us ,
but yesterday they would grasp our
hand so cordially , speak of our fu
ture prospects so kindly , . that we
thought , never again shall we be in
want of a friend. One heavy ( aver-
dupols ) man who was striving to be
one'of the two that should drop the
much coveted ballot for U. S. Sena
tor on behalf of a portion of the
people of this representative district ,
and who had not even "nodded at
us" since he was last a candidate ,
almost embraced us and eagerly
asked of our family. We have no
family , but had not time to explain ,
so told him that they were well , and
that we had taught our oldest to
lisp his name.
A smile passed over his cheeks ,
which resembled a rose of darkest
hue , and handing us a ticket he
moved majestically on. Thus the
day passed. When night came all
were satisfied as to the result , with
out counting the tickets , but the
formality was gone through with ,
proving that Kennard had again
triumphed. A. K. White for the
House , and C. C. Burr for the Sen
ate , are as good as nominated , while
Hastings and Funke will have a
lively fight before either will be con
tented to see the other the colleague
of White. This , probably , secures
three , votes for Tom Kennard for U.
S. Senator , which makes him very
happy. Candidates were as thick
as grasshoppers In Minnesota , and
the downcast look of the disappoint
ed ones remind us of the bare stalks
in a cornfield aft r being deserted
by the destroyers that recently left
us.
us.Office seekers are not all dead ,
though , by any means. Numerous
are those who desito to prosecute
disturbers of the peace in this dis
trict. Among the aspirants In this
city are D. G. Hull and J. H. Ames.
Of Mr. Ames , a good lawyer , we
will say nothing , but In the case of
Mr. Hull , must enter our protest In
behalf the city and State not that
"we believe Mr. Hull less , but Ne
braska more. " This is our reason :
If Chief-Justice Waite should re-
tign , or if through any misfortune
she seat he now occupies should be
come vapant , Nebraska ought to
have the honor of furnishing hs (
successor. This she can do if Hull
is unlncumbered at the time.
"General BIck , " the Herald's ' old
reliable , is here , and you may ex
pect to see a flaming " head , " an
nouncing the success of the old
" Kennard ring. " The General is
a'pretty good feljow , but he can "sea
a ring where Stout wouldn't mis
trust sunh a thing.
The delegates elected , such men
as Balrd , Pound and others , are suf
ficient guarantee that the Republi
can party will have good men in
the field. Next Saturday will tell ,
at whjoh tjme we will speak further
of thV nominees. GBIMES ,
WHO KILLED TOBIAS MIT
CHELL ?
It Was Hot Andrew Sclzle , hut
Some Other Han.
The coroner's examination Wed
nesday afternoon of the murder of
Tobias Mitchell , the cojorec } man
who was shot Tuesday afternoon ,
resulted in the discharge of Andrew
Selzle , the German who was ar
rested on sqspjcjon of having dope
the deed.
Notwithstanding .the apparently-
positive testimony of Allen "Wright ,
the colored boy and companion of
Mitchell , that pelzle was the man
and the identification by Mitphel
before he died , yet Selzle proved
perfect alfbi by reliable witnesses
It seems that hp was jn the city
from early in the morning till afte
supper , and that when the shooting
was done he was three miles fron :
the scene of the tragedy ,
The jury after hearing the ev } ;
dence , rendered a verdict that the
deceased came to his death at the
hands of some unknown person.
We understand that the authori
ties have got on the track ofanother
man , whom they think did the
shooting , This murder Is certainly
uvery mysterious aifuir , ap4 tfyp
officers should make every possible
effort to bring tlie'right man to jus
tice
